->'''[[ReformedCriminal Weaver]]''': I always hated the speeches when I was in school, the preaching in auditoriums, the one-note message. Stuff like saying ''drugs are bad.'' Itís wrong. Drugs are fantastic. People wouldnít do them if they werenít. They make you feel good, make your day brighter, give you energy-\\'''Mrs. Yamada''': ''(Warningly)'' Weaver.\\'''Weaver''': -until they donít. People hear the message that drugs are bad, that theyíll ruin your life if you do them once. And then you find out that isnít exactly true because your friends did it and turned out okay, or you wind up trying something and youíre fine. So you try them, try them again. It isnít a mind-shattering moment of horrible when you try that first drug. Or so I hear. Itís subtle, it creeps up on you, and you never really get a good, convincing reason to stop before it ruins your life beyond comprehension. I never went down that road, but I knew a fair number of people who did. People who worked for me, [[FantasticAesop when I was a supervillain.]]-->--''Literature/{{Worm}}'', [[http://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/06/01/drone-23-4/ Drone 23.4]]

!!!RealLife->There are 100,000 total marijuana smokers in the US, and most are Negroes, Hispanics, Filipinos and entertainers. Their Satanic music, jazz and swing, result from marijuana usage. This marijuana causes [[WhereDaWhiteWomenAt white women to seek sexual relations with Negroes]], entertainers and any others.-->--'''Harry Anslinger''', America's first drug czar, in 1937

->Drugs pull you down and shut the lid on life. Pot opens everything up. All the anxieties, the creepy crawly blues, it all just drifts away and you can slowly remember what it feels like to be alive. Even more importantly, you can take a step back from the crap that's flying and see what really is important, which of the many things in your life really deserves worrying about. Not much!-->--'''Creator/MarilynMonroe'''

->Happy, self-confident men do not seek to get stoned. Drug addiction is the attempt to obliterate one's consciousness, the quest for a deliberately-induced insanity. As such, it is so obscene and evil that any doubt about the moral character of its practitioners is itself an obscenity.-->--'''Creator/AynRand''', ''Apollo and Dionysus''

->Like a brain surgeon who drinks a martini when he's not on call, the successful kids in your school may smoke pot on occasion, but they are not stoners.-->-- '''Bill O'Reilly''', ''TheOReillyFactor For Kids''

->We are a drug culture already. Sleeping pills, aspirins, the nightcap that too often becomes an [[InVinoVeritas Indian war bonnet]]. Ideally, reality should be so interesting that we donít need tranquilizers and stimulants. But since there are too many people in the world and not enough for them to do ó certainly very little that is interesting ó the American majority serve their 40 hours a week in order to stun themselves with beer, television, whatever, come the weekend. -->--'''Creator/GoreVidal'''

->[[UsefulNotes/GeorgeHWBush Bush]] came out and said, 'We are losing the war against drugs.' You know what that implies? There's a war being fought, and the people on drugs are winning it.-->--'''Creator/BillHicks'''

->A particular trademark of the [[VerySpecialEpisode VSE]] is that it can't be trusted to deal with substance abuse issues without turning into a hysterical, hand-flapping PSA, like those after school specials where a straight-A bookworm takes one whiff of second-hand pot smoke and [[{{Anvilicious}} immediately joins a murderous biker gang before launching themselves from the highest building in the city]], because they can flyyyyy!-->--'''Stuart Millard''', ''So Excited, So Scared''

->Telegenic white women don't disappear mysteriously or get indicted for gruesome murders every day, and Nancy Grace needs something to talk about when she can't scrape up a Casey Anthony. It seems she's decided to wage war on that devil weed mary jane, which is ironic, because ''no one'' needs pot more than Nancy Grace. -->--'''[[http://jezebel.com/nancy-grace-freaks-out-on-pot-advocate-obviously-youre-1682259971 Kelly Faircloth]]''', "Nancy Grace Freaks Out on Pot Advocate: 'Obviously You're Stoned'"

->Denzel goes in front of the hearing and knocks it out of the park, the coke having given his brain the kind of sharpness and clarity that earlier allowed him to do the incredible plane-saving maneuver.

->My strong suspicion, although I don't now how to prove it, is that the reason is that marijuana's a weed, you can grow it in your backyard, so there's nobody who would make any money off it if it were legal. Tobacco requires extensive capital inputs and technology, and it can be monopolized, so there are people who can make a ton of money off it. I don't really see the difference between the two, frankly--except that tobacco's far more lethal and far more addictive.-->--'''Noam Chomsky''', ''Understanding Power''----
